Commentary

Unpublished.

Inscribed on the tapered part of a bone point, running from the drilled hole towards the tip. Length 3 cm. The scratches appearing black on the light bone surface, legibility is impeded by black marks and blots, but S dI sR2 sA5 s is unambiguous. I s is a little shorter than the other letters, S d has a very short lower bar. In the right, more heavily scorched area, a group of scratches seems to make up a variant of Heta with four bars, which is not attested elsewhere in Raetic context. Cp. VN-8 with possibly a name in the genitive χaris (and a similar execution of S d), but note that while the status of Heta/h in Raetic is not quite clear, Chi is assumed to write a velar media rather than a fricative, wherefore Heta would not be an expectable orthographic variant. Another possibile reading is Θ sE s etaris with one of Theta's lines rather straight.

On the reverse side, a neat sequence I sI sI sI sΘ sI sI sI sI s (height 1.2 cm, length 2.6 cm) must be interpreted as decoration.
